The Burstall Bordertown Ladies Night Out Committee is lookingfor some help with the Burstall swimming pool fundraiser.

Club members need donations for the silent auction and prize giveaway for the March 9 Ladies Night Out event.One of the event’s organizers, Trina Constable, said it’s a good time for those who go and important to the viability of the small community’s major facilities — the swimming pool.“The money goes to the operation of the pool,” explained Constable which sees 80 per cent of the money raised go to the pool with the remaining to cover expenses. “This is our fourth year doing it —we do it every second year.” The event will feature a supper catered by the Lion’s Club women as well as door prizes, raffles, draws and a silent auction. Some of the prizes included are a window-covering package (totalling $1,000), an autographed Saskatchewan Roughriders football, an autographed Calgary Stampeders’ jersey and an overnight stay (casino package) to the Medicine Hat Lodge.Entertainment is by Hear by Request (music trivia entertainer specialist) from Edmonton.
